It was around 7pm when I put on my outfit I chose after class and brushed my hair. I already stole some food from the kitchen and made my way to the yard. I ignored Draco the whole evening. I reminded him to stay in the common room and to not come to me for whatever reason.

I saw Potter sitting nervously on a blanket and joined him from behind sitting myself next to him.

"Hello Potter".

"Hello", he smiled.
"Uhm, don't you think it is nicer to call me with my first name?"

My eyes widened and my mouth fell open while I laid the food on the blanket.

"...you mean...Harry?"

He nodded.
"I would also like to call you Diana. I do not like calling you Malfoy, because your brother keeps thinking I mean him".

I smiled.

"Sure".

We watched the sun going down and ate the food I stole. While we talked about Quidditch. It was a nice evening that day, I almost forgot the reason I was there. Whenever I was with Potter, I tend to forget my true intentions. He made me forget what I really wanted.

"Look, the comet", he said while we laid down on the blanket, looking at the stars.
"Did you make a wish?"

I looked at him from the side and saw his beautiful eyes shining in the dark.

"A wish?"

There were many wishes I wanted to realize. Which one should I think about?

"You do not have a wish?"

"There are many. I guess I would say..."

I wished that I did not have to fulfill my plan. I wished that tomorrow, Voldemort would give someone else the task to kill Potter.

"What did you wish for?"

I saw his eyes beaming at me from the side and turned around. Our faces were close enough. I could see my reflection on his glasses but I could not move backwards. I wanted to stay like this. But why?

"I wished...for a dance", I lied.

"A dance?"

I nodded and turned my face back to the sky, hoping he won't see my red face. Why was I blushing again? There was no reason to.

"Did you not dance on the Yule Ball?"

"No. Nobody asked me...Well I guess that they really thought I was a monster".

I smiled awkwardly but his face was serious.

"I did not dance either. I would have asked you if I knew how..."
He did not continue.

"How?"

Our faces laid next to each other. Close enough for us to kiss.
What was I thinking?
Kiss him? Don't be ridiculous, Diana.

"... Nice you were. You are really nice, Diana".

My name coming out of his mouth had a different sound. I liked it.
My heart beat fast, my cheeks were red.

"It is nice from you. My brother refused to dance because nobody asked me. Even though he had someone to dance to".

We were still looking in each other's eyes, our faces a few inches away.

"Your brother? I did not think he would..."

"Yes. My brother is a nice person. Not all Malfoys are bad... Harry..."

Speaking his name made my heart do a jump. His eyes widened, as if he was surprised by what I said.
We laid still for a few seconds, our faces next to each other. In that moment, I really thought he would kiss me but he stood up and left me alone on the blanket. My eyes followed him as he stood in front of me, showing me his hand. His eyes laid on my while I stood up and placed my hand on his.

Our hands touched and I felt my heart beating in every inch of my corner.

"I will make your wish come true now".
